Climbing some of the
most popular hiking and climbing destinations in Africa are
situated in Tanzania. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in
Africa and also the highest free standing mountain in the world,
is a magnet for thousands of climbers from all around the world.
Various climbing routes wind up Kilimanjaro offering an
overwhelming experience to the intrepid climbers who scale the
dramatic peak. Other beautiful climbing routes scale the
wildlife rich forests of Mount Meru. Climbers pass through
changing vegetation zones. Lush tropical mountain forest, alpine
moorland dotted with giant lobelia and groundsel. Arctic desert

fitness and health. Technical climbing routes exist on
Kilimanjaro and other massifs in the area and can be arranged
for interested parties.
